  2. 21. Characteristics of Particulate Emissions from Low Temperature Combustion and Renewable Fuels : Aerosol Mass Spectrometry of Refractory Carbonaceous Particles

    Author : Vilhelm Malmborg; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Emissions; Soot; BC; BrC; ROS; SP-AMS; MiniCAST; Diesel Engine; HVO; RME; Cook Stove; Emissions; Soot; BC; BrC; SP-AMS; ROS; MiniCAST; Diesel Engine; HVO; RME; Cook Stove;

    Abstract : Particulate air pollution is one of the major causes of premature death in the world, and combustion-derived soot emissions contribute strongly to the particulate pollution to which humans are exposed. Black carbon (BC) is one such emission and denotes soot with strong light absorption in the ultraviolet to infrared spectrum. READ MORE

  4. 22. Materials aspects in spin-coated films for polymer photovoltaics

    Author : Ana Sofia Anselmo; Ellen Moons; Krister Svensson; Jan van Stam; Paul Dastoor; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; materials science; photovoltaics; conjugated polymer; polymer solar cell; bulk heterojunction; coating; morphology; fullerene; photostability; degradation; X-ray absorption spectroscopy; synchroton-based techniques; Materialvetenskap; Materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Polymer-based photovoltaics have the potential to contribute to boosting photovoltaic energy conversion overall. Besides allowing large-area inexpensive processing, polymeric materials have the added benefit of opening new market applications for photovoltaics due to their low-weight and interesting mechanical properties.

  5. 23. Speciation of copper in ashes from municipal solid waste combustion

    Author : Henric Lassesson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; copper compounds; MSWI ash; XANES; metal speciation; EXAFS; X-Ray absorption spectroscopy;

    Abstract : Copper is one of the most important trace elements in municipal solid waste (MSW) combustion. Knowledge of the speciation of copper is fundamental for the understanding of the effects of copper compounds on the combustion chemistry as well as of the environmental impact of the ash. READ MORE

  6. 24. Measurements of High-Precision Atomic Data with Applications to Astrophysics and Cosmology

    Author : Maria Aldenius; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; atomic data; Ca; Cr; Fe; Mn; Mg; metal-poor stars; fine-structure constant; Fourier transform spectroscopy; nebulae; oscillator strengths; spectroscopy; wavelengths; Ti; Zn; Astronomy; Astronomi; Atomic and molecular physics; Atom- och molekylärfysik; rymdvetenskap; space research; cosmic chemistry; kosmisk kemi; branching fractions;

    Abstract : Investigations of astrophysical spectra require accurate atomic data, such as wavelengths and transition probabilities. This thesis provides high-precision atomic data for astrophysical and cosmological applications. The measurements have been carried out using Fourier transform spectrometry on light produced in a hollow cathode light source. READ MORE

  7. 25. On the reliability of methods for the speciation of mercury based on chromatographic separation coupled to atomic spectrometric detection
